Shells on the Blacktop

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Waking up to the early morning sun As the rooster crows, the day's just begun There's sweat on my brow, ache in my bones Hurry the day on by because that's the way it goes I poured a whiskey glass with my callused hands Asked myself could I be a better man Tried to open up and speak, but they won't understand That it's all inside of me that's just the way I am I drove my old accord on the open road Blasting California Love, like we did when we were young Thinking back to those times, when we were growing up Before your father sins, before, those empty shell on the blacktop, those empty shells, those empty shells on the blacktop, those empty shells, those empty There's a black crow sitting on the lamppost out in the street I looked into it's eyes, saw death staring back at me As I sit here strumming my six string, back against a tree Something pulls me in, like the tide to the sea I drove my old accord on the open road Blasting California Love, like we did when we were young Thinking back to those times, when we were growing up Before your father sins, before I memorized the photographs, hmm The very few that I have, hmm Howling like a wolf on a full moon night Cursing out to the sky I drove my old accord on the open road Blasting California Love, like we did when we were young Thinking back to those times, when we were growing up Before your father sins, before, those empty shell on the blacktop, those empty shells, those empty shells on the blacktop, those empty shells, those empty shells
